      you know, the world doesn't revolve around the year 1975. There are actually people born after that mythical year who have not had the fortune to see the movie yet, and spoilers are spoilers no matter how old the movie/book/story is. So piss off.

        Telling people you disagree with to piss of. What an unoriginal jerk.

          Spoilers aren't an opinion.
          I'm telling your smart@ass, IMDB attitude to piss off.

            I am laughing here thinking how stupid you are. You keep replying to this thread that spoils the movie. Every time you do this the thread moves to the top so everyone can read it.

                Reading comprehension is not your strongest suit. And your insults are weak which tells me you are not very bright. Once again you reply to this thread bumping it to the top while protesting that the title contains spoilers. Brilliant.

                  Children please, can't we just agree that you're both right? Some people have not seen the movie despite its year of release so perhaps the thread-starter should have been more discrete in his choice of subject line. On the other hand, if you haven't seen the movie and yet you come to its discussion board I don't think you can have too many complaints that you saw a thread whose title tells you something about what happens in the movie. Do either of those things make either of you stupid? No, so don't worry about what the nasty man is saying.

                      If you go to a message board of a movie you havent seen and you get spoiled, you have yourself to blame.

                        This argument is defunct, because you can clearly see message board topics directly below the user reviews; you don't even have to click on the message board link. It takes all of 2 seconds to put a spoiler warning in there, and is simply message board etiquette. Don't make excuses for laziness.

                          Exactly. People come here to DISCUSS the movie. If you read something you didn't want to read, tough schitt.

                              It was the only way they could control him and that was their primary aim, as with any patient in that facility.

                                Basically, because he was a pain in Ratched's ass and she had the pull to make it happen.

                                    The reason he tried to kill her was because he was overcome with grief knowing that she was directly responsible for the kids death.

                                        Ratchet couldn't control him and was loosing control of the ward because of him. She was the kind of person who has to have complete control and defeat anyone so by letting Mac out he would have defeated her whereas if he's lobotomised the people in the ward see she's defeated him

                                          There was another reason, FEAR.
                                          She was afraid that if there was an investigation into the kids death Murphy would testify that he killed himself as a direct result of her attacking the kid psychologically by threatening to tell the young mans mother about his little adventure. The kids hear of being exposed made him kill himself. Her fear of being exposed as a sadistic manipulator by Murphy made her fix it so Murph could no longer talk.
